Putz.
Take that, Boehner
Well done.
I would like to think that someday there will be a trial for treason.
That is one jury I want to be on.
Dennis Prager just noted that only about 150 people in the world speak the Denali language, so this is a real coup for our "fearful leader".
What’s missing in all these narratives is the fact that McKinley was one our few asassinated presidents.
Alaska can stop Obama is his tracks.
First of all, “national parks” are an unconstitutional federal land-grab from the states, regardless of how benign or benevolent such act may seem at the time. The only valid federal ownership of state land is described in Article I, Section 8, Clause 17 of the U.S. Constitution which says:
“[Congress shall have Power…] to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings;—”
National parks were not purchased upon consent by state legislatures for the use of “Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings”, so national parks are unconstitutional federal acts. The states can make state parks according to the consent of the people and legislature of that state.
Secondly, because national parks constitute unconstitutional federal commandeering of state land, the state may reject and nullify such an act. Unconstitutional federal acts are by definition acts of tyranny - it’s just that some acts of federal tyranny begin with a happy face. Sates have the right and the duty to stand against such acts.
Here, Alaska can stop Obama in his tracks. First, Alaska can declare, on sound constitutional principle, that Denali was not purchased upon consent by the Alaskan state legislature for the use of “Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings” and can therefore, take back this land. If Alaska actually paid money to the feds for this land originally (I doubt it) then Alaska can pay back the equivalent or reasonable amount now. Most likely, the feds didn’t pay for Denali in which case Alaska can simply assume control of the land upon notification to the feds (NOT permission from the feds).
Laying that groundwork would make the next step of throwing Obama’s act of renaming Mt. McKinley back in his face an easy one.
Woulda never happened if Mckinley was a democrat...
Nothing new. It used to be called “Denali” before it was Mt. McKinley. “Denali” means roughly, “The Great One.”
Having solved all other problems...
Did ISIS surrender today?
Did blacks stop killing whites today?
Did illegal aliens stop crossing our borders today?
...
I’d have expected him to restore the old Russian name “Bolshaya Gora” ...
